Secrets of the Alhambra and its irrigation system.
Posted By: zztopd, 02-24-2014, 12:44 PM

The Alhambra is a palace and fortress complex located in Granada, Andalusia, Spain.
It was originally constructed as a fortress in 889 and later converted into a royal palace in 1333 by Yusuf I, Sultan of Granada.
The Alhambra's Islamic palaces were built for the last Muslim emirs in Spain and its court of the Nasrid dynasty. After the Reconquista by the Reyes Católicos ("Catholic Monarchs") in 1492, some portions were used by Christian rulers.
